Such as in the various “Erklärung”-forms and the LTTG Merkblatt, the documents set out what bidders must submit and which minimum requirements apply. The bidder must submit: (i) the completed, stamped and signed “Erklärung zum Angebot” on avoiding products from exploitative child labour, including, where relevant, declarations that the supplied products are produced without exploitative child labour or that active measures are taken and evidence via independent seals/labels/certificates (e.g. Fairtrade, GOTS, SA8000); (ii) Tariftreueerklärung (Mustererklärung 1) where the company is covered by the Arbeitnehmer-Entsendegesetz (AEntG), confirming payment of at least the applicable collectively agreed minimum wage; and/or (iii) Mindestentgelterklärung (Mustererklärung 3) under § 4 Abs. 2 LTTG, confirming payment of at least the statutory minimum wage (with specific hourly rates listed up to 2027) to workers not covered by AEntG. These commitments extend to subcontractors and, where applicable, temporary agency workers, with bidders required to collect and submit corresponding declarations from Nachunternehmer and Verleiher and to maintain complete, auditable records on deployed staff. If the mandatory tariff or minimum-wage declarations are missing at offer submission and not supplied after request, the offer must be excluded from evaluation (§ 4 LTTG).

Such as indicated in the Anschreiben, the award criterion is solely the lowest price: “Als Zuschlagskriterien wird der niedrigste Preis festgelegt. Den Zuschlag erhält das wirtschaftlichste Angebot mit dem niedrigsten wertbaren Angebotspreis.” There is no mention of qualitative sub-criteria or weighting; the economically most advantageous tender is equated with the lowest evaluated offer price, provided all formal and legal requirements (including social clauses, deadlines and delivery commitments) are met. The procedure is fully electronic via the Vergabeplattform Rheinland-Pfalz, and communication is exclusively through this platform; no compensation is paid for bid preparation.

Such as in the risk-related clauses of the ILO/kinderarbeit declaration and the Merkblatt LTTG, the documents highlight specific risks and special conditions. A knowingly or culpably false declaration regarding child labour can lead to exclusion from the procedure and, after contract award, to termination for cause without notice. Non-compliance with tariff or minimum-wage obligations, or failure to secure compliance in the subcontracting chain, is framed as a statutory exclusion ground and a continuing contractual obligation, with potential controls by the contracting authority. Subcontracting is allowed but tightly regulated: bidders must carefully select subcontractors, ensure their calculations are based on lawful minimum pay, and submit their LTTG declarations; in certain low-volume cases (<10,000 € per subcontractor) the authority may waive LTTG declarations, but only by explicit decision. The validity period of offers is fixed (Bindefrist to 31.12.2026), and the question deadline (29.10.2026) defines until when bidders may seek clarifications. The documents do not mention performance guarantees, contractual penalties or mandatory site visits for this supply contract, so such conditions either do not apply or would have to be set out in other, not reproduced parts of the tender dossier.

Regarding contradictions or corrections, the text itself largely cross-references consistent statements. The Merkblatt clarifies that it is only an aid and that the binding rules stem from the LTTG itself and the specific tender conditions; where a Tariftreuerklärung under § 4 Abs. 1 or 3 LTTG does not apply, the bidder must instead submit a Mindestentgelterklärung under § 4 Abs. 2 LTTG. The repeated passages about exemptions (e.g. no obligation for Auszubildende, or for certain EU-based configurations) are consistent between Merkblatt, Mustererklärung 1 and Mustererklärung 3. In case of any divergence between the indicative Merkblatt and the actual prescribed forms or legal provisions, the legal text of the LTTG and the specific completed forms (Mustererklärungen and “Erklärung zum Angebot A2/2026_409”) govern; the documents themselves emphasize that the Merkblatt is not legally binding and cannot override statutory requirements or the tender-specific instructions.
